THE CAVALIER, FEBRUARY 1910
This issue contains two complete novels and six serials, along with numerous short stories. The lead feature is Marie B. Schrader's "On a Secret Mission," which follows Norman Russell, a tall, blond American who arrives in Paris claiming to be on undisclosed business. At his hotel, Russell encounters two mysterious European gentlemen—Señor Petrono and Señor Barrata—who dine with him and attempt to pry into the nature of his secretive mission, suggesting it may be diplomatic. Other serials include Charles Carey's "The Livery of Guilt," Stephen Chalmers' "Knights of the Caribbee," and Bannister Merwin's "The Red Emperor." Eleven short stories feature contributions from authors including Langton Clarke, Arnold Hofmann, and Joseph Ivers Lawrence. The issue also includes advertising for Muhlbach's eighteen-volume set of Historical Romances covering European history from the 18th-19th centuries.
